Windows (and other major OSs) keeps track of what chunk of memory each program uses, so when you close the program, the OS should clear all memory leaked by the program as well. So if you are heaving memory leakage with chrome for example, closing all tabs and the program can help to solve the problem from time to time.

A quick correction: On most modern operating systems the OS keeps track of the memory being used too, allowing it to free up the memory when an application closes. So while a reboot of the system will always do the trick, you can generally just close and reopen the application to fix the leak.

Could you do a fast as possible for CPU cooling height limits for cases. Some cases say they have a max cooling height of 165mm. But does this mean up to 165 as in 164mm and below will fit.. or does this mean 165mm right on the spot and below fits. It's always tricky picking a cooler when its right on the exact 160mm, 165mm or 170mm spec line.

Awesome explanation. Subscribed to your channel.

Some costume kernels for some android devices allow you to have a SWAP memory partition. There's an app that (with root and kernel support) will allow you to have 5gb. But keep mind that it will shorten the lifespan of your SD card and you can't do it on the internal storage because it well basically kill it. Also you need root to use an app to make a SWAP partition and a custom recovery to install a custom kernel that supports this.

You are the best worlds technology enthusiast spoke person Linus !

Great video Linus!

Generally, most memory leak happens in applications, modern OS kernel shouldn't leak. (It would be catastrophic) Many times, what happened is technically memory bloat, not memory leak. Which the application still keeps track of the allocated memory, but just not using them efficiently. (e.g. keeping cache that is useless in ram).

Another good thing to know is that closing the program that's leaking will free all the memory it was using (most moder operating systems will take care of that), so if you know ehat program is causing the issue that can temporarily solve the problem.

Each GDDR5 module is 32 bits, so a 384 bit graphics card with 6 GB of GDDR5 would have 12 memory modules (384/32=12). Since 1 GB=1024 MB, and 6 GB = 6144 MB, you can divide 6144 by 12 modules and you get 512 MB, so now you know that a 384 bit memory card such as the 980 ti has 12 GDDR5 memory modules with each modules capacity being 512 MB

Sometimes I watch these knowing full well what the thing is but it's nice to make sure.

wow linus's tech tips sure are good

Linus, (or whoever from L. M. G read this) I really believe that a re-wording is necessary at 1:40 . When saying that the OS needs to use the hard drive space (Page file) instead of using the term "lead footed" I would say "extremely lethargic" or "molasses in January slow" or anything besides the current "lead footed" The reason I feel so strongly about this is that the term "lead footed" to 99% of people makes them picture a lead foot driver, meaning someone who drives really really fast because there foot is heavy on the gas pedal. And to someone who isn't very tech savvy and watches your videos to learn, they could definitely get the wrong idea from your choice of words.

Any way we could get a 2023 longer version of this? Lately it seems many games are coming out with memory leaks and it'd be nice to see ya'll actually use tools and programs to help aid whatever the problem is. Hogwarts has had so many memory leaks it's crazy, and the Witcher 3 dx12 update introduced many new leaks there as well. When you still want to play the blasted game, but also wanna 'band-aid' patch for better performance, what do ya do?

Where can I download the sound effect at 3:06?

3:06 what's that sound effect called?

what about using the task manager and force close a program to free up ram?

Wrong info at the beginning of this video (around 1:00). Even if a program fails to release memory areas WHILE it's running, esentially "forgetting" what chunks it has used, when you close it, the OS releases them because the OS keeps its own tabs on things like that. It does not know the details, it does not know that the application reserved area B and then forgot about it, but it does know that it has been asked to reserve A, B and C so when you exit, A B and C is marked as free. Short version: leaky app leaks while it's running. If you close it, the OS brings the mop and cleans that mess.

@sheepphic

6 жыл бұрын

you also can just close whatever's leaking to free up the resources instead of restarting (unless it's a system process or the kernel of course)

game freak devs should watch this

soooo if my game randomly starts to stack up memory when launching like after a few seconds it uses another 7 gb along with the 7gb that the game is already using, is that considered a leak?? An update causing the game to double the RAM usage??

It should be noted, if a process is closed the kernel should release all memory assigned to that process page, so as long as the issue isn't in the operating system kernel itself, restarting the leaky program should free up the resources.

i have a memory leak problem, and done everything he suggested except stop using the program, i need my videogames lol, but i know this program and others that are causing a memory leak on my computer used to not cause this problem, could buying new ram possibly help? or upgrading to windows 10? maybe?

There is a 4th option. With "Speed up my PC" tools (yes i hate them too) I use one called Advanced Systemcare which comes with a "performance monitor" (sort of sidebar widget if people sill remember those). anyway long story short it has a "clean RAM" button that helped me a bunch with the famous Killer Network Driver memory leak. Freed up about 4GB ram from that at the click of a button :)

So is this why that one time I used Photoshop, and while using it it took up the last 5 gb's of space I have on my C: drive and then when I tried to add another layer and paint on it it just tells me that my scratch disk is full?

Can you guys do PBR or physically based rendering as fast as possible? i just want to know the differences with normal rendering with ambient occlusion

my computer every once in awhile stutters very quickly for about fraction of a second and I'm wondering since I spent about $1,000 and I use it so much I freaked out and my heart starts pounding like it's going to not work so I'm asking will it hurt the computer in anyway or is it software-related and I can't do much besides updates and restarting

ive had a memory leak on my computer for the past 3-4 months i dont feel like reinstalling my OS yet. i have 16gb of ram and at start up its fine but after about 5 hours or so of the computer being on it will be %90 full with no programs running.

Dami Bang GPU RAM is not the same thing as system RAM. The highest "level" of system RAM is DDR4. You can use it.

i had that problem with windows vista ultimate it keeps using memory and them crashing it had 8gb of ram and doing nothing i was running on a 64 bit pentium 4 but that was fine i had to reinstall windows vista ultimate with a usb flash drive

Every time I reinstall windows or install another preview I have to run "sc config NDU start= disabled" because of a memory leak with WFPN. Otherwise my ram usage goes to 99% after 4-5 hours. Think it's connected network monitoring or/and my ethernet driver.. it's most annoying really..

Is true that a stronger CPU needs in general more memory RAM than a slower CPU? For example i3 4360 needs 3GB RAM for checking windows updates, but it finish let's say in 5 minutes, and G3220 is finishing the same task in 8 minutes but is using just 2.3GB of RAM all the time. True or not?

@Gameactive

+Coroi Alexandru-Mihai I really doubt that’s the case, since what the CPU does is dictated mostly by the operating system and the programs it’s running. _However_, I do see it as a potential bottleneck if you have significantly less RAM than the CPU is able to support, which would mean the CPU couldn’t perform at full capacity during RAM-intensive tasks because it’s either waiting on it (due to its slower clock speeds) or is unable to allocate more (due to a physical lack of it). So while it doesn’t exactly _need_ more RAM to work properly, it’s best to have enough to fully utilize the CPU you no doubt paid good money for.

@alexmihai22

8 жыл бұрын

A stronger CPU will process much more data in the same amount of time, and considering also multiprocessing, a faster access to memory (usually i3 supports 1600 DDR3 while G3220 works at 1333MHz with memory), and just considering that get same job done in less time, RAM was charged more and then released fast, and on a slower CPU RAM is not charged that much, and it gets job done little by little. If you put an CPU single-core to convert a video it will take, let's say 3 hours. And you equip it with 4GB of DDR3 (Socket LGA775 with DDR3 supports P4). And you give the same job to an i5 4460, i5 will finish in about 20 minutes. But it will charge harder the RAM, due to higher necessity of space for maneuver. So, the better CPU you have, is good to equip it with more RAM, to ensure releasing properly entire processing power it has available.

Why do I have memory leak (I think it is) everytime I start up my PC, trying to launch a game results in poor FPS (for example GTA V, 30ish FPS), then after a reboot the performance is 100+FPS. And this happends to every game I try to launch after first startup.

Is memory leakage solely caused by bad coding, or can old/damaged physical components on RAM cause it as well?

Thanks. This helped

Is this a memory leak? Windows 10 often tells me that I can't delete some files because a certain process is using them. Like uTorrent for instance, I tried to delete some files I downloaded while uTorrent was closed, normally this happens flawlessly but this time it told me that uTorrent is using the files... I was like waaaaaaat? Task Manager shows no utorrent where did that come from. Also just a few minutes ago I tried starting Steam but it wouldn't start so I decided to uninstall it. Again, I can't delete most of the files because of the same issue. I check Task Manager and there's nothing there. I restarted and I still can't uninstall it. What is going on? Is this what a memory leak caused by an OS is like?

So viruses/viri?, trojans, and worms cant be a possible cause for such leakage? Specifically cookies in your firefox browser? I guess im stuck with the Windows 7's svchost.exe high ram usage problem until i find a better way.

I have a memory leak when I am connected to the internet. When I am offline then it's fine. The software is called Lsass.exe. Any solution?

Rule of thumb: A program's allocated memory is reclaimed by the OS upon (clean/dirty) exit. That, if the system is not compromised.

Another issue could be heat. Cpu's cycles will reduce to nothing if the temperature rises too high, giving that slow or locked up feel after several minutes. We just had this issue, a guy even swapped a motherboard, from working sister machine, but ambient temperature was above what the MB could cool down to. External fan was placed outside unit.

I had something similar a few months ago ... i downloaded games and everything was temporarily stored in the ram .. so every few minutes when my 16 gb were occupied i had to restart my pc ..... even ram cleaner programs didnt work as they should ..

What do you mean i have ddr4 16gb with 3200mhz and im at 80% without doing anything and i dont have any viruses on my pc wtf ? And apps that im running currently use only 3 combined
